That should be right. I have run across an issue which could cause what you're
describing, though.. essentially it boils down to Pa_GetDefaultOutputDevice
returning -1, indicating there is no default device (even though there are
devices it can use), which causes Pa_OpenStream to fail.
However, that would cause an error to be printed to the console. If you're not
getting an error printed, that may mean it's not even trying to open a device
with PortAudio, But in that case, it wouldn't be enumerated, either.
